This painting reflects a persistent advertising campaign that saturated the artist’s feed across multiple platforms in the weeks before Black Friday.
By translating the aggressive commercial visual message into oil painting, Andrei Campan mirrors and slows down the mechanisms of digital persuasion, exposing their intensity and repetition.
Andrei Campan is a Romanian visual artist whose work explores the tension between human intimacy and the digital public space. Based in Bucharest, he graduated from the National University of Arts and built a multidisciplinary career spanning over two decades in branding, graphic design, illustration and animation.
Since 2025, he has returned to analog media, focusing primarily on oil painting. His work explores the fragile space where human presence meets the digital environment, reflecting on intimacy, perception and the shifting boundaries between private life and the public stage of contemporary media.
Scroll ’25 marked the beginning of a personal investigation into the relationship between traditional painting and contemporary digital visual culture.
Presented during the Night of Museums, the exhibition brought together works that translate fragments of online imagery into painterly compositions. The show was accompanied by a public discussion on digital images and the ways they increasingly shape our perception of reality.
During his residency at GlogauAIR in Berlin, Andrei Campan developed the series Scroll ’26. This new body of work consists of four paintings that expand his earlier investigation toward an international digital environment. Drawing from the visual language of social networks—screenshots, notifications and algorithmic feeds—Campan treats these elements as fragments of a new collective mythology.
